High Stakes Poker Season 6 - Episode 12

[PeachCeca]

Tom Dwan will always pay even if he has one pair of 2 cause he is a lucky donk that is always saved by fucking luck!!!

[PeachCeca]

Galfond.. i don't know what you are doing.. You follow here like 150k with one single pair in hand and in another video you refused to pay the same money when you had straight. Anyway, i like you cutey <3

[garciaj36]

lol imohtep

[Samet3009]

first time i´ve seen a player tip the dealer! nice from daniel even though he´s behind.

[ATfilms21]

at 8min30 its cool to see dwan back up negreanu on matusow's poker attitude. that seemed to cheer daniel up a little

[rusjones]

K Q suited 3000 to call ... Mike folds.. that's how we play poker boys...

He's such an idiot but i like him for some reason..

[Adaminski95]

Love doyles hellmuth impression

[SoGreatToHaveFun]

I dislike Eli Elezra. Eli has an disgusting personality! Can he please shut the fck up?

[SoGreatToHaveFun]

Eli Elezra is a fucking cunt meat head! His a fucking luckbox and a stupid asshole!

[oneselfishguy]

Matusow: " I`ve been hit by a buss"

Elezra:" We can see that..."

Yes Matusow we see that it made you "different'

JUST STFU ALREADY AND PLAY

[poinked]

what did dwan said at 27:45 and what does it mean?

[Totuus2011]

@poinked He's trying to get them to play the 2 7 game. So if anyone wins a hand with 2 7 he will get a bounty for each player at the table.

[duckswtf]

"It'd be great if another 10 comes up then we'd see some action." LOL!

At 31:30.

[clan1993]

@duckswtf do you heard of ironie?

[RiceForAzn]

Like a good neighbor, Tom Dwan was there. LOLOL

[BoobiesHooray]

I used to think Daniel was cool, but he is just a bitch. He deserved exactly what he got in those two hands last episode against Mike.

[romadadrummer]

@BoobiesHooray agreee 100%

[guanamono]

@BoobiesHooray Daniel is cool and your comment is bitchy. Mike behave horibbly saying "How that's we play poker boys" after flopping K99, having KK...

[DizzyWalin91]

@guanamono

derp

[78k7]

35:55 mike cant call 3k with QK of diamonds



[saosinrising]

anyone else notice how elky says i have 210 when dwan asks him how much, such a subtle tell haha (two tens)

[professor4444]

nit alert nit alert nit alert

[FooneyMoonky13]

haha kaplan is great

[volter84]

matusow nice hit&run

[ruarihennessy1]

im going to look at this fooooooone

[dingostar2620]

Gabe Kaplan the commentator is hilarious.

[shaoiliu]

Brunson is the GREATEST of all time. the Muhammad Ali of poker, the Jordan of poker. build that pyramid!!

[Noobplug]

good call by elky... i would of definitely put tom on JJ or QQ

folding would be bad because the value bet was pretty small

[popselias]

DN is such a bad player...slams his chips and raise? lol

[tsias10]

such a bad call by galfond

[ruarihennessy1]

@tsias10 shutup u fucking moron

[Adelvilla]

Damn mike matusow will be arrested by chuck noris LOL 39:50

[ruarihennessy1]

@Adelvilla funny that

[tommyXBOX360]

What is daniel thinking at the last hand. Doyle check-raised hum all in (7x) and he calls with top pair nog even top kicker? The best daniel could hope for is that doyle has got two overs + a flush draw or similar draws that would be like 50-50. Snap calling with net even getting 2:1... i am not a poker expert that believes he is better than the pro's but daniel just is a major pay-off wizard.

[jzcho1]

35:50 "see u have fears of big bets, i have fears of big buses" tom dwan's a genius hahahaha

[SuperMyfamily01]

Can someone explain to me the argument against sunglasses at the poker table? I can't understand what Tom Dwan is saying!

[dealerG]

Daniel made a lot of mistakes but the 97 cooler is just unavoidable. The 10s is a different situation though. Daniel should know that Mike isn't limp raising with 9s so even if he flops an overpair, he's still probably dead. Mike was actually right when he said he had the best hand Daniel could have hoped for because Mike is playing like a big NIT and he's not gonna donk off his money after folding AJs etc...

That call against Doyle was questionable. Doyle has two pair most of the time.

[cashguy1]

"When I'm crossing a street and a bus is coming, I usually get worried" Tom is sooo funny

[MrJonnyboy36]

Matusow is a fucking HIT n RUNNER... total fish.

[kieferroche1995]

in texas you can go to jail for that hahaha gabe is hilarious

[MrJonnyboy36]

@kieferroche1995 It's capitol offence..

[conorharten]

durrrs comment about the pocket tens hand is kinda strange...he 3-bet pre flop he could have had an over pair even though he has a wide 3- betting range but he has to get a hand at some time...mabye thats why hes there and im here but i dont think its that easy of a call he would have played an over pair the same way...anyone agree???

[ATfilms21]

@conorharten nah i think durrrr commented about it because he bet relatively small in comparison to the pot, as though he had a 9 and was value-betting his full house against a pair of 7s of 8s. so he found it crazy that elky would fold 10s when there were only three hands that could beat him. if durrrr bet more im sure he wont have made that comment :p but who knows, im not durrrr but i hope this kinda helped :p

[VicenzoV]

Instant karma is when you berate a player for playing to tight, and then lose your entire stack to him twice within one hour. This year the High Stakes Poker Instant Karma award goes to ... ?

[JBades6310]

@djdiddles99 being a nit and just getting his tv time, what else?

[LeoGMaster]

yes, do it imhotep :D!!!!!!

[MrBidwin]

I always try to save money on all the things I buy. I do it in various ways including online. This video shows a system that was totally new to me. You can even get a smart phone at a discount.

[Steveoizzle1988]

mike is an annoying faggot i bet they hate playing with him..

[Ace303232]

@Steveoizzle1988 He is such a donk they put up with it coz they know he will be leaving with less than what he bought

[JiveDadson]

Moron Mike thinks it is an advantage to have the largest stack? Just the opposite is true. Think about it. You can get your money in and watch the others knock each other out without it costing you a chip. That is the reason for a min buy-in and why it is against the rules to go south with chips.

[djdiddles99]

@JiveDadson If you're shortstacked, than your play is much more limited. If your only move is to get it all in, you're only going to win the blinds most of the time. And I think Doyle knows best. He made it abundantly clear in Super System that it's better not only to be a large stack, but the largest stack on the table.

[JiveDadson]

@djdiddles99 That cuts both ways. The opponent's play is likewise more limited against you. The differentiating factor is when you are all-in versus two or more others who are still battling and knocking each other out at no risk to you. I have read Super System. I disagree with it on this point. So does Barry Greenstein. Obviously, I do not play at the level of those two, but Barry's argument is logical.

[leafs109]

Mike is an idiot, but everyone folded to him and he was scared to play Elky who made an early position raise, haha, it's a bad play, but i guess he was up 400k and wanted to make sure he kept it, he left 4 mins later, so can't really blame him too much, but it was still bad for tv, and he should be charged like Gabe said!!

[BitiiteBrauns]

1m bet to be a vegetatrian for a year,and then dwan lets him to buy out just for 150k....why not Dwan torutred him more....like asking for 2,5m from ivey and then he can have his stake or be vegetarian for 11 month more! shame noone offers me a million to become a vegetarian for a year...im poor,cant afford much meat anyways!

[TheBccemify]

And this is the guy who titled his autobiography "Check Raising the Devil"...what a fucking bitch.

[johnnyblux666]

Here's our ice sculpture because when you think of poker you think of ice sculpture ... Gabe is the best hahaha

[leafs109]

@johnnyblux666 hahahah, true, he is so random and funny!

[Falke21]

0:32

[pablosgscr]

Gabe is the best!

[Raghy07]

31:34 It will be great if another ten comes up, then we'll really see some action. Ehh, it's a nine. LOL

[Animedive]

"g'nite Mike, see you at your arraignment" 40:15

[WindBreaker77]

Lmao Gabe is so funnnnnny

[WindBreaker77]

Lol is Elky speaking French at 24:45? Can't understand his english, it's too fast...

[YLUMRR1]

Doyle cracks me up

[regel1971]

30 seconds naked with kara

[nickhoksbergen]

I didn't know there were still people who don't realise poker does have a relatively high luck factor. Every player that is not awful at poker could tell you that.

[comeonyoudidnt]

@nickhoksbergen Care to elaborate? And please avoid posting some crap about some bad beat. In the long run, when the money goes in, the expected value always outweigh the variance.

[nickhoksbergen]

@comeonyoudidnt

Luck meaning that if you go all in with 2-7 against bullets pre-flop you can still win with 2-7. That is where the luck factor comes in.

[comeonyoudidnt]

@nickhoksbergen so you say poker has a "relative high luck factor" because AA 'only' holds up slighty less than 90% of the time vs 7-2 all in pre flop? How can you claim poker to have a HIGH luck factor by stating an example where the best hand holds up 9 out of 10 times?

[nickhoksbergen]

@comeonyoudidnt

You better be trolling

[comeonyoudidnt]

@nickhoksbergen just because you never bothered to learn how to calculate pot odds and probability it doesnt mean its not true. But whatever, keep thinking luck plays a huge part and enjoy donating your money.

[nickhoksbergen]

@comeonyoudidnt Come back when you learn the meaning of "relatively". I just can't be arsed to help you understand facts, one day if you learn how poker works in practice instead of in theory you may stop denying a very simple fact.

[comeonyoudidnt]

@nickhoksbergen Because poker works so very different in practice compared to in theory? The math is the same, bud. Whether it be on the felt or on the paper. All I did was ask you to back up your claims with some facts other than posting some bad beat. You replied by posting a bad beat. I accept the fact that you view poker differently than I do, but please back up your statement with something other than dribble.

[nickhoksbergen]

@comeonyoudidnt What you don't seem to get is that in Texas Hold 'em, no matter what you do, the cards are completely random. You only know the 2 cards in your hand and any cards on the table. Okay so sure, you might be able to make a very good read, and know all the hands of your opponents by paying attention to limps and pre-flop raises. That's great. So, let's say on a rainbow flop, you got like top two pair, and your opponent goes all in (with whatever, could be bottom trips or backdoor..

[nickhoksbergen]

@nickhoksbergen Flush draw, or backdoor straight draw, doesn't even matter. You have to call if you are sure he doesn't have trips. That's the point where you call and you let the cards handle the pot. That is where the luck factor comes in. You could make full house, he could make a flush, trips, better two pair, or whatever he could get with his hand. This is the point where, skill isn't an issue but its just getting the right cards layed down. Now, sure, you could've done a good read that he.

[nickhoksbergen]

@nickhoksbergen was drawing, but that is as far as it goes for your skill. You could've also used your amazing skills to calculate the exact odds of what the chances are of your opponent winning, but even if those odds or 1% 11% or 33% it is all irrelevant when the right cards get on the table. Sure it is a great amount of skill required, but by the fact that it has a random factor it is definitely not 100% skill and so there is luck involved in a game of Texas Hold'em poker.

[juuonse]

@comeonyoudidnt Haven't read the original comment to which you are responding. But when 10% of the time the best hand against the worst doesn't hold up (a factor which only goes up when relative "goodness" of hands start closing) then yes, I'd say 10% is a quite high number. Especially when there is absolutely nothing a good or a bad player can do about it. But no, I'm not saying poker is a game of chance. It's a combination of skill and chance both.

[comeonyoudidnt]

@juuonse I wholeheartedly agree on it beeing a game of both skill and luck. What most people dont realise though is how big of an edge the better players actually have, but thats a whole other story;) If you look at ONE single hand I agree that being a big favourite doesnt always work out, but imagine if you play thousands of hands each day and most of the time you go all in you are a 60-100% favourite; who do you think wins teh money the long run? :)

[juuonse]

@comeonyoudidnt It's a matter of interpretation really. In the long run good players are able to decrease their variance on their earnings. However, as each hand is an isolated event thereby the variance per hand is not,in essence, decreased. This is one of the reasons so many legislations find it hard to classify "poker" as a game of skill which in turn affect attitude towards the game in legal terms. Luckily countries like Denmark have updated their legislation on these issues with new terms.

[juuonse]

@comeonyoudidnt but yes, in the long run, it is more probable that the skilled player makes more money. However, it is possible to hit a losing streak on "big hands" ending up with negative net earnings even if the total sum of hands won is positive. But yes, it is more likely a skilled player is able to stabilize his income curve whereas an unskilled might vary heavily between wins and losses.

[Celmak1]

@comeonyoudidnt yea yea in statistics 101 that is what they teach you.... unfortunately in reality

[848harris]

@comeonyoudidnt  try playing on pokerstars

[golfdeano]

Matasow "i loose 60%'s 9 out of 10 times"

[leshene21]

@golfdeano  Yeah, online that's about right

[raddo01]

"there's our ice sculpture, we have it there because whenever you think of poker you think of ice sculptures. loool.. Gabe u funny bugga

[AdenEFC]

Mike is easily the worst nit ive seen, KQ suited in the SB and folds for 2.600 more, wowww

[Anonomousxxx]

damn poker is so much about luck

if ivey or dwan were running as bad as daniel they would have lose very much too

[FiduciaInDio]

@Anonomousxxx It's not luck at all, if you knew anything about poker you'd know that and you'd know that Daniel has been making horrible decisions every time on HSP. Dwan and Ivey know when to get away from hands and what to do, but Daniel just convinces himself to keep calling and keep shoving, etc. It's bad poker he's been playing.

[Anonomousxxx]

@FiduciaInDio cmon it was mosttly frustration

again, if dwan and ivey had that luck they would have lost a lot too

straight vs fullhouse, trips vs fullhouse, fullhouse vs quads, and thay almost always draw out on him and he never hits his draws

Im not saying he was playing very well, but he was playing ok, and the point is that poker is very much about luck

[bukowski1950]

@FiduciaInDio Worst Daniels mistakes in all of HSP were when he knows he's beaten but he pays anyway just so he can show everybody how unlucky he is and whine about it.He's very bad cash player,like Phill Hellmuth,they can go on tournaments collect fish chips,real game is not 4 them.Also,on tournaments it should be last 1 on table goes forward,but every new table should start from beggining,with equal amount of chips.And not,on final table,1 has 10 millions and other has 100k

[Dbkim92]

@bukowski1950 DN's cash game has been reinvigorated by playing alot of online poker. i would go as far as to say he's pretty decent now, though he's still a calling station

[bukowski1950]

@Dbkim92 agree,he was much better in last season,but then again,in last season there was not even close competition as in previous seasons.

[samueljue]

@bukowski1950 i think Daniel's problem is that he tries too hard to play like Dwan..raising preflop a lot with mediorcre hands. However, when he doesn't hit his hand, he gets stuck in bluff mode. When he hits a pair, but gets bet into, he has trouble folding. I think he'll be a much better cash game player if he bet less, call less, and play less hands.

[bukowski1950]

@samueljue Agree 100%.He just want to play like durrr..

[yellow6100]

@samueljue youre fucking wrong.daniel doesnt try to play like dwan .....he was this bad before dwan learned poker

[Tumppe1337]

WTF doesnt even call with KQs in small blind?!?!??! srsly....

[BUNCECENTRAL]

39:00 Sums up high stakes poker...Dwan has an 8 kicker to Negreanu's 7

[djdiddles99]

KQ suited and Mouth doesn't call 3,000?? What the hell is he doing there?

[AlwaysinTrancee]

@djdiddles99 thats why people on the table doesnt respect him..

[FiduciaInDio]

@djdiddles99 He's by far the worst player I've seen playing poker with these guys. I don't know how he's still playing, he borrows money every time just to play...

[andreshkobeful1]

@djdiddles99 he is up about 400k he doesn`t have to play that much...

[Raghy07]

@djdiddles99 In Texas you can go to jail for that!

[joole5005000]

@djdiddles99

Forgot the "and 400 dollars already in because of small blind" :P

[GOLDSILVERDUDE]

@djdiddles99

He was up over $400,000. That's life changing money for the money broke mouth.

[yellow6100]

@djdiddles99 he is folding.what you think he is doing?
